Using Huddle's intelligent recommendation technology, the new app automatically delivers and syncs the most relevant files to workers' iPads. This ensures that workers always have secure access to the latest version of their documents, online and offline. It also allows people to discover previously unknown content from across the enterprise that may be relevant to their job.

Huddle for iPad, available today on the iTunes App Store, brings together content, social and mobile to unlock the true potential of anywhere, anytime working. It seamlessly integrates with Google QuickOffice, Readdle and Fileboard to enable true mobile working, including file creation and interaction when on the move, while meeting the data security and management needs of IT. Huddle for iPad is the first technology debut since the company completed a $24 million Series C round of funding in May.

"Enterprise needs are clear: IT departments must be able to securely manage all content across the organization while empowering workers to access and edit relevant documents when on the go. Huddle for iPad is the first mobile technology that satisfies the needs of both workers and IT," said Alastair Mitchell, CEO, Huddle. "Huddle for iPad seamlessly combines enterprise content management and social collaboration in a central, secure platform that enables organizations to easily embrace mobile working across the workforce."

With analyst house IDC estimating that the mobile worker population will reach more than 1.3 billion by 20151, there is an increasing need for technology that enables people to work as effectively on their tablets as they would from their desktops. By combining secure content management and social collaboration with intelligent file recommendations, Huddle for iPad ensures that enterprise workers can get their work done easily and efficiently.

"Collaboration is, at its core, a social process, so in the crowded online enterprise collaboration marketplace it is no longer sufficient for business software to specialize in either file storage or social collaboration; businesses today should choose solutions that thoughtfully and elegantly combine content management, file sharing and social collaboration so that workers can be more productive," said Terri McClure, analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group. "And because business users are using personal devices to access data on corporate networks, sometimes circumventing IT policies to do so, next-generation software should securely extend these socially enabled collaboration applications to mobile devices such that they meet the security and oversight needs of IT while offering users a simple way to interact with content on any device like they would on their desktop."
